Emotional Needs.......What are they?

1/5/2016

0 Comments

 
We all have emotional needs, men included, but unless we know what they are, or what our partner's emotional needs are, then how can we best meet them?

Like I said in the previous post, if we are to nurture & take care of each other's emotional needs we need to be conscious about doing that, and willing to consistently meet these needs for each other. Otherwise the relationship can begin to feel disconnected bringing about feelings of sadness, disappointment, grief & loss of what once was. One or both may begin to feel less loved, valued, complete & fulfilled, and even taken for granted 
Some emotional needs can be:-
  • ​Experiencing affection
  • Desiring quality time to communicate what's going on for each other
  • Experiencing sexual intimacy
  • Needing honesty and openess
  • Being supported financially
  • Working together to complete the household chores
  • Working together as a team in helping raise the children
  • Being respected, affirmed, 
  • Making time to enjoy recreational companionship together
  • Sharing new adventures together
  • Enjoying a spiritual union
When our emotional needs are being met we feel happier, more fulfilled and more emotionally connected. So asking each other what is important to each & being willing to meet those for each other consistently, not only will nurture, but protect and enrich our relationships. Whether we feel like meeting these needs or not, as we do, we can expect a positive response from our partner, and in return a sense of being appreciated & loved.
